Chapter 189: Kill them all

A golden soldier with outstanding archery skills raised his bow, aimed it at the head of the wooden general, and shot an arrow, and with a muffled thud, the arrow hit the top of the wooden general's head, shooting his kneel body to the ground.

Seeing this, the surrounding Jin soldiers immediately burst into laughter.

In this battle, the Jin army fought so easily, so easy that they didn't need to go into battle at all, they just needed to stand behind the earthen wall and wait for the wooden army to take the initiative to send them to the door and let them shoot them, but the 80,000 wooden troops trapped in the Jin camp were so miserable that there was no way to go to heaven and no way to go to the ground.

The raging fire is rapidly devouring the lives of the soldiers of the wooden army, and the burning wall around the wall makes the wooden army unable to approach at all, there is no other way out, they can only break through from the gate, but there is a heavy guard of the Jin army, and there is a solid earthen wall to rely on, the wooden army went out to die a batch, at the Yuanmen, the corpse of the wooden army has been raised more than half a meter high, and the smell of burnt meat wafts in the air, making people sick.

Ouyang Xuan was still doing Zuihou a fight, he didn't dare to break through in person, so he could only push out the wooden generals around him one by one, but the armor on the wooden generals was only able to block a few more arrows than ordinary soldiers, and under the dense arrow array, the life of the wooden generals was also fleeting in the blink of an eye.

It didn't take long for Ouyang Xuan to arrest people from his side, but as a result, there was no one wooden general left around him, and dozens of Mu Guo generals had been sent by him, and dozens of people were all lost under the arrow array of the Jin army, and now he was the only general who could lead the troops to break through.

At this time, Ouyang Xuan was completely desperate, his body shook a few times, and he sat on the ground with his butt on his head, his face like ashes, and his eyes were empty. The guards on the left and right looked at each other, hugged each other, and shouted, "General." Our...... I really can't rush out, it's better to be burned alive and shot to death by the Jin army...... Why don't you come down!

"What are you talking about?" Hearing the descending word, Ouyang Xuan grabbed his sword and jumped up from the ground as if he had been stepped on by someone's tail. glaring at the guards around him, he gritted his teeth and said, "I am a dignified general of the Mu Kingdom, how can I descend to the thief?"

"General, what if...... If they don't, the general and his brothers will be burned to death!" said the guards in a trembling voice.

The anger that Ouyang Xuan had just generated disappeared in an instant, and he looked around, everywhere he looked, there were red flames, and countless wooden soldiers were covered with flames. Rolling on the ground, the screams can no longer be distinguished, where is this still a military camp, it is a miserable purgatory.

Alas, am I really going to die here today? Ouyang Xuan's raised sword was slowly put down, looking up to the sky and sighing.

"General ......" Seeing that he was still hesitating and indecisive at this time, the guards around him were all anxious and shouted in unison.

Ouyang Xuan took a deep breath. The voice was hoarse and mourned: "Command our soldiers, to ...... Surrender to the Jin Army!"

Ouyang Xuan's voice just fell. The surrounding guards were about to jump up excitedly, and ran in all directions like crazy, shouting loudly as they ran: "Brothers, don't fight anymore, the general has ordered the whole army to surrender, brothers don't fight anymore......"

If the soldiers of the Mu Army still had a trace of fighting spirit just now, now I heard that Ouyang Xuan had ordered the entire army to surrender. The little fighting spirit that was left was gone, and people threw away their weapons, took off their armor, tore the white cloth from their mid-garments, and held them high. As he ran out, he shouted repeatedly, "Surrender!"

Seeing countless wooden soldiers with no armor on their bodies and no soldiers in their hands, holding white cloths high running out of the gate, the Jin soldiers outside were a little at a loss, people were holding bows and arrows, and they didn't know whether to continue to shoot these surrendered wooden soldiers.

The generals of the Jin Army reported the news to Lin Haotian as soon as possible.

Now, Lin Haotian is not far from the side of the Jin Ying, at this time he is very leisurely, sitting on a chair, watching the burning camp with Bi Wu, Ling Wuya and others while drinking, beside them, there are Gu Liangyun, Tong Lei, Jiang Shi and other generals and a large number of guards are always protecting.

In Lin Haotian's opinion, from the moment Ouyang Xuan led the main force of the wooden army to sneak attack his own camp at night, the battle between the two sides had already been divided.

Looking at the brazier-like barracks, listening to the heart-rending screams of the wooden army inside, Lin Haotian and the generals around him chatting and laughing, looking at the atmosphere on their side, instead of the tension of the decisive battle between the two armies, it was more like watching a good show with a known result.

Everyone admired Lin Haotian's plan to lure the wooden army into the bait with the whole army's deception, but people were also very strange, Lin Haotian obviously didn't know how to lead the army to fight, let alone know the war strategy, but the strategies he came up with were often superior to others.

In fact, how did they know that Lin Haotian, as a modern person, has learned too many successful examples of ancient battles, and it can be said that any modern person embodies the essence of the wisdom of his predecessors for thousands of years. How to apply all kinds of knowledge he has mastered to the battlefield, and can have the effect of surprising the enemy and defeating the enemy, this is where Lin Haotian is really clever.

At this time, a Jin general hurriedly ran over, knelt down on one knee in front of Lin Haotian, intervened to salute, and said: "My lord, the wooden army has laid down its arms, raised the white flag and surrendered to our army, please decide!"

"Oh?" Lin Haotian smiled and said to the people on the left and right: "The Mu Army surrendered so quickly. ”

Bi Wu bowed and said: "My lord, there are at least 80,000 people trapped in our army's camp, and even if you remove the dead and wounded, there must be at least more than 50,000 people. ”

Without waiting for Lin Haotian to answer, Ling Wuya first interrupted Bi Wu's words, and sneered: "With so many wooden troops, how much grain does our army have to consume every day? Therefore, my lord, in the opinion of the last general, our army must not surrender, and the trapped wooden army must be killed all!"

After hearing this, Bi Wu frowned, and said quietly: "General Ling, that's more than 50,000 lives!"

"But it's also my 50,000 enemies!"

These words shocked Lin Haotian's body, the wooden army of more than 50,000 people is not a small number, if the wooden army is less than these 50,000 people, the military strength will be greatly weakened, if it is allowed to have more than 50,000 people, the wood country will still be vigorous.

Thinking of this, Lin Haotian had already made a decision in his heart, but he still had some concerns.

Lin Haotian said slowly: "The slaughter of more than 50,000 surrendered troops will damage the reputation of our army, and it will also make the people of Mu Country hate me to the core, which is not in line with my country's foreign strategy!"

Bi Wu, Ling Wuya and other generals are also understanding people, a little bit of it, after hearing this, I immediately understood what Lin Haotian meant, no matter whether Mu Jun surrendered or not, he was going to be killed, but this order could not be issued by the commander of the Jin Army, it had to be executed by others, to put it bluntly, Lin Haotian was looking for someone who could replace him with infamy.

"This ......" Bi Wu was about to say and stopped, but his eyes couldn't help but look at Ling Wuya.

When Ling Wuya captured Liaodong City, it was at the cost of nearly 10,000 Mu Kingdom prisoners that he successfully broke the city, and in this regard, everyone in Mu Country hated him to the core, and his infamy had already been memorized, and now it was not bad to carry these 50,000 people.

Without waiting for Ling Wuya to speak, Lin Haotian had already spoken first: "Wuya, in fact, I am not afraid of being infamous on my back, but as the commander of an army, I can only focus on the overall situation, if our army is a brutal in the eyes of the people of Mu Kingdom, then the result will be endless, Wuya, do you understand my suffering?"

Lin Haotian personally spoke, and when it came to this, Ling Wuya couldn't shirk it if he wanted to.

His face changed and he muttered for a long time, then took a deep breath, stood up, bowed to Lin Haotian and said, "Today's massacre of the Mu Kingdom's surrender army is all the work of me Ling Wuya, and it has nothing to do with the adults and the rank generals. ”

Bi Wu and Tong Lei, Jiang Shi and the others behind Lin Haotian were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly stood up and bowed deeply to Ling Wuya.

Lin Haotian sighed lightly, also stood up, stretched out his hand to help Ling Wuya up, and said, "You have to be clear, if you do this, not only can I not reward you, but I can only punish you heavily." ”

Of course, Ling Wuya understood that Lin Haotian, as a general, had to take care of his reputation and make a show for outsiders, he nodded and responded: "The last general understands." ”

Lin Haotian patted Ling Wuya's shoulder hard, and said, "Wuya, I'm going to let you be wronged this time!" (to be continued......)
